Me again. Another awful bug. I'm sorry. I'm pissed off about this now. I've had this bug before a version or two ago. It seemed random. This demonstration isn't.

The input that I'm moving in the video is a MIDI input, not audio. Watch your ears with this. I had headphones on when this shit blasted my brain.

If I disable Sampler, it still does it. If I remove sampler altogether, it stops. When I had the same bug a different time, it was feeding into Reaktor, not Sampler. Because it was Reaktor, I could see exactly what the audio values were and it was receiving an input value of a massive number.

I can confirm that there is something odd going on and also that it is horrendous. For my test I loaded an instance of the Sampler to Track 1 and added a single sound to it (the gentle quack of a green cheek conure, if anyone wants to know.) I added Reverb right after it and didn't change any settings.

I have found that there is a some-time glitch in one channel (right channel, in my tests) that is inaudible without the Reverb. With the Reverb it is very, very audible.

It does not seem to ever happen when I play the Sampler using my MIDI keyboard. Not so far, anyways. It does happen sometimes when I use my mouse to click on the Sampler's in-built keyboard. I haven't managed to find a way to get it to happen consistently. One time it took just a few seconds of clicking; another time it took about 40 seconds.

I set up Track 2 to record the output of Track 1 and moved Reverb to Track 2 to see what difference that might make. The recorded audio shows a strange glitch, but the Reverb in this case did not amplify it in the same way. This seems significant, but I can't say why.

I set up Track 3 to record the output of Track 1 and moved Reverb back to its position right after Sampler. When the glitch happened, Reverb amplified it horrendously. The recorded audio shows the glitch again in the right channel and it also shows just how loud Reverb makes it.

I haven't tested alternate instruments, but I just tried ToneBoosters Reverb in place of TSC Reverb and the same thing happened. Boooooooooooom!

Surely there must be consensus by now...
